Thanks in advance!
It will be better with the 2020 PP shocks then MY14 shocks. The 2020 non PP shocks would ride the best out of the factory suspensions.

RCE springs + stock shocks of any type do ride more harshly over really bad pavement and big bumps. With the replacement bumpstops that we include and the more mild drop, it's still better than most other lowering springs. On most roads, the ride is pretty good with good condition shocks.

As mentioned, Bilstein B6 pair reeeeeally well with them and we have a nice package deal on our website. It's not necessarily solely the travel...basically all factory shocks have valving that is just kinda harsh.
